So quick question.
The other day I had a incident and lessoned learned. I dropped my holstered Beretta while putting it away for the night as I routinely do. I had other stuff/gear in my hands and my hands were a little slippery as well from dinner. Lessened learned! It dropped from my grasp at about 4 ft high and landed on the bottom edge of the grip(think of were a wilson mag guide goes. The muzzle was elevated around a 45 degree angle.
The gun was still in its holster after hitting the wood floor but to my shock was in single action(not to half cock). I carefully picked it up and decocked, unloaded it and put it in my safe until I could further examine it. To be honest I was kinda unnerved about this whole incident as the single action is light on a tuned 92.
So I will preface my question with the following:
I know Berettas have passed all sorts of tests, NATO drop tests and domestic agency testing as well. It is probably one of the most tested and vetted pistols in this day and age.
But is this sound normal? Could a tuned Beretta when dropped pull through the single action as well?
The next day I looked over the cleared and safe gun and noticed no damage and functioned checked it. All good as I would expect and honestly not even a mark on it. I then replicated a drop the same way on a padded mat from about 3ft high and the gun went to single action through the inertia of the fall.
This was on a Elite LTT with trigger job and 13lb spring. When I get time I may throw the D-spring in and replicate test.
Just wanted to check with others and see what the consensus is.
Thanks!
